The campers of Camp Half-blood and Camp Jupiter knew no rest. But for once in the short lives they've lived something amazing was happening. They were aging out of camp.

No longer would they fear the streets, keeping their hands tracing over the weapons hidden beneath their clothes. Finally, they would be closer to regular mortals, getting to dip their toes into a new life. They had survived.

Or so they thought.

"They're calling it Pandora's revenge."

"No offense, Mr. D, but I really don't give a fuck what they're calling it."

"Language, sweetie. And you should care. You've been chosen to lead."

"That's a terrible decision."

"I told them so."

"So we both agree we're fucked then."

Despite the past attempts to keep the world in a state of neutrality, it seemed the demigods could never truly win. Someone would always be upset, and usually for a decent enough reason if you asked most demigods. If the safety of the world didn't sit atop their shoulders, most demigods could find reason to the gods complaints.

Even now, faced with the impending end of the world, none of them could disagree the minor gods had been cheated throughout history. They just hated that it was up to them to make everyone and everything better again.

It was seven gods and goddesses this time who'd come together to stage their complaint. Eros, Eris, and Limos were done being seen as sidekicks. Valid enough. Moros and Koalemos wished for a better job title or at the least a better reputation among the mortals. The demigods wished Themis could interfere and settle these complaints over godly court. Why was it always them?

Instead, two other powers had stepped up to provide justice, and any demigod who heard their names instantly abandoned the idea of a quest. Nyx and Ate worked quickly. Already the world was falling into panic as dark days reigned. Food shortages hit the shelves while marriages fell apart. Cases of depression were skyrocketing.

The Gods were angry with the seven who had managed to send the world cascading in only a few mere days. Olympus was on the verge of threatening war, but they did not know where each of the seven were hiding. The angrier they grew, the more it seemed they'd rather destroy the world than have it destroyed before them. Only the demigods could see the work of Ate and Eris at play.

Despite the lack of enthusiasm to take on the quest, it would have to get done. The gods could not be trusted.
